[WT-support] MP3 replay and features

[Ulf, DL5AXX]

Hi all,

First of all a Happy new year 2010...

I also want to report some observations on MP3-recording at CR3L.
We recorded the audio of 3 radios. One of them used the 'Fraunhofer IIS MPEG
Layer-3 Codec', where the recording stopped very often on Sunday morning,
but after rebooting on Sunday afternoon it worked again. No time during the
contest to go into details, sri. Replay of this stream is without problem.
Pressing alt-gr-enter always reaches the marked call.
The 2 other computer used the 'LAME MP3 Codec v0.9.2-3.98.2'. One of them
was ok.
When I want to replay a QSO of the other one, I usually have to go to a QSO,
which was 2 minutes earlier to reach the position of the QSO, which I want
to hear; but the difference is not constant. Also moving backward and
forward in the MP3-stream doesn't works ok. Sometimes I press '30 seconds
back' it will move some minutes backward, sometimes it doesn't moves. So I
think there is a problem with the timestamps.
This faulty recording was done on a Atom-netbook, which also showed some
delays in CW-keying (RS232 -> K3). 

Are there any similiar observations, or it's an individual fate (german
'Einzelschicksal' - good to have online translators)

Some frenchs users tell me off list they cannot encounter same behavior as
me. Perhaps the mistake coming' from my sound card or mp3 codec. I can
reproduce same fault in 2 differents computers in my house even with Laurent
settings advice. Tomorrow will try into another computers. QRX and stay
tuned for an new report.
